Yellow bellied sapsucker.
Lots of indigo buntings including the juvenile in the last picture. He hasn’t got all of his blue feathers in yet.
The scarlet tanager has black wings.
The summer tanager is the only all red bird in America (according to All About Birds)
Female red breasted merganser.
And a pretty cactus flower just for fun.
These were taken at Fort Desoto in early April when spring migrating birds were stopping by for a rest before heading north for the summer. There wasn’t a ton of birds but a few good ones.
I haven’t seen a tanager or a bunting in years! We have bluebirds, bluejays, and cardinals, for those colors, but I’d enjoy seeing some of these other beauties, too.

Beautiful birds and I love the cactus flower!
